This OSHA 16 Hour HAZWOPER Upgrade (to the 40 Hour) - Online is for workers with 24 Hour HAZWOPER training who wish to upgrade to the 40 Hour HAZWOPER training level. This version of the course provides training that is entirely online. We also offer a 16 Hour HAZWOPER Upgrade Combo course that includes hands-on training. All HAZWOPER training must be refreshed each year.
Workers with 24 hours of training who are covered by paragraphs (e)(3)(ii) and (e)(3)(iii) of this section, and who become general site workers or who are required to wear respirators, shall have the additional 16 hours and two days of training necessary to total the training specified in paragraph (e)(3)(i).
Students who should take this course entirely online are workers who will use HAZWOPER equipment and receive follow-up training in the use of site-specific equipment from their employer OR those who require an OSHA 40 Hour HAZWOPER certificate but are unlikely to use any HAZWOPER equipment on any worksite.
Most students select the online option for their 16 Hour HAZWOPER upgrade to the 40 Hour HAZWOPER level because they still require site-specific equipment training after they complete the course. Due to the wide variety of equipment available, the equipment used in a hands-on training session may not be the same as the equipment used at your work site.
It should be noted that the online version does not allow students the practical experience and ability to handle the tools and equipment available to the HAZWOPER worker.
This OSHA accepted training is brought to you by a team of OSHA Certified Outreach Trainers and meets the requirements for 29 CFR 1910.120(e)(3)(iv) and 29 CFR 1929.65(e)(3)(iv).
In this online version, students are shown over 50 short demonstration videos of techniques that would normally be part of an 8-hour hands-on training session. These videos demonstrate HAZWOPER equipment uses and donning/doffing procedures in great detail. Students are permitted, and encouraged, to review the videos as frequently as they like. These videos are required viewing for each student.

When required by OSHA standards, workers must receive additional training on the specific hazards of their job. Training providers should be used to ensure credibility and augment a company's training program.
In addition to the training provided by an outside party, a student should receive site-specific training provided by his or her employer. This training should target the company's unique approach to hazard prevention, including the use of site-specific equipment, health and safety policies, and emergency procedures. As a rule, this company specific training should be well documented.
If a worker who has taken the OSHA 40 Hour HAZWOPER course entirely online is required to use any of the equipment discussed during their training, more training may be warranted.
